About
The beautiful setting of Twin Birch Golf Club in Kalkaska features stands of red pine and birch trees lining the fairways and the Boardman River, which winds its way all throughout the course. The golf course is mostly flat with the exception of a few raised greens on the back nine. The greens on the front nine are level with open fronts, inviting players to attach the flags. There are ample landing zones along the tree-lined fairways, making Twin Birch a golf course that will appeal to beginners and high handicappers but there are still challenges in store for the more advanced golfers as well. Some of the doglegs holes can be quite tricky. There are also several strategically placed bunkers lurking along some of the greensides and water comes into play on eight holes.

Disappointed
The clubhouse is torn down. Looking forward to thar new one.
Great course
Paid $18 for this course and was expecting very little, it amazed me with how good it was, only issue was seemed to have a lot of newer golfers playing and slowed down the pace a little bit
great value
very hidden gem for the price. narrow and challenging but plenty of chances to score.
Hidden Gem
This course is a gem! The fairways and greens were probably the best condition of any course we have played this summer. The restaurant was closed due to Covid but they had snacks/drinks available in the pro shop. We highly recommend this course when you want a break from the prices of the resort courses in northern Michigan.
Hidden Gem
We come to northern Michigan to golf every year, and usually play some of the more well-known, expensive courses. We found this course at the last minute for a great deal, and we were so impressed! The tree lined fairways were beautiful, especially during the peak season of fall colors. This was one of the best kept courses we've played this year. The fairways were kept clean, and the greens were in outstanding condition. Some holes were easier and straight away, while others offered some challenges. This is a course where you can enjoy a round of golf with people from a range of abilities. We will definitely be back! (Note: restaurant is closed due to COVID but they did have some snacks available in the clubhouse).
The course was well kept greens were in very good shape even at the end of season when we played. The 16th hole was a little odd for a par 5. Played 420 yds for men and 215 yds for women a gully in front of women’s tee where there was a dogleg left for men, just a little different for sure but all and all the course was fun to play and we will play again when in the area
Very nice course
Played here with family. The lady at the counter was friendly and welcoming. I will go back again the next time I am there.
Fun and challenging BUT
course is fun, challenging, and in good shape. it is a shame that the carts haven't been cleaned in years.
Very good course especially for the money
Course conditions were in good shape. Nice course especially for money. Only drawback was restaurant was closed for covid but course was good regardless
Great
Love the course, love the staff.Food usually very good too bad restaurant closed because of Covid
Good course
This course is very fun to play, with a mix of short holes to long par 5's. The greens were one of the most challenging I have encountered.
